Support curved quotes in doc strings
Emacs's traditional doc string style has been to quote symbols
`like this'. This worked well on now-obsolete terminals where
` and ' were symmetric quotes, but nowadays curved quotes
‘like this’ look better. Support quoting the new way too.
(Bug#20385)
* doc/lispref/tips.texi (Documentation Tips): Symbols can be quoted
‘like-this’ as well as `like-this'.
* etc/NEWS: Mention this.
